notdNetHack

In notdNetHack, The Stone Mask is an artifact mask of Shiro.

Description

Masks are worn over the face and eyes, and applying a mask will put it on or remove it. Every mask is of a particular monster: if a character is polymorphed while wearing a mask, they will transform into that monster if it is a valid polymorph form, and will otherwise turn into a random monster as normal.

Certain monsters that wear masks, such as lillends, can use the same attack routines as the monster depicted on their worn mask.

Strategy

Worn masks can can be used to minimize damage from unexpected polymorph traps, and are often employed to hide marks from the character binding spirits such as Andromalius and Astaroth.
